Establish routines within your family, like family dinnertime, family movie nights, family game night, family chores. These teach and strengthen relationships, build communication skills, can teach emotional regulating and self awareness. DINNER TIME CHATS is a great exercise you can do during dinner to practice all three of these skills.
Tip: We have a tendency to dismiss the lows. Not talking about the lows are missed opportunities to develop communication around "low." It may inadvertently teach avoiding or dismissing "low" feelings. It also misses an opportunity to practice how to respond when others share their "lows."

This is a drawing of my family. This is an exercise I did with a client to practice identifying our values and being self aware of our emotions. Read the descriptions on the photos to understand the exercise. I encourage you to draw your own family, including yourself. Assign a color to an emotion, then color in your family with the emotions you've felt towards them. Then ask yourself, "Is the importance of my family, or myself, determined by my emotions?" If you say yes, you may be emotional- based living rather than values-based living.

Ask yourself, how would I look or act differently if I focused on the importance of my family rather than on my emotional state?

Please share your thoughts.
